Ramana's Child

[ramanaschild]

Who are you?

Nothing. Yet, I know I am.

[ramanaschild]

Life is a gift.

Joy and suffering

are just God opening

the gift wrapping.

[ramanaschild]

Humanity has finally found a way to communicate with crabs, we realize they're smarter than us. Now that they know we know, what are they going to do?

Love has planted in us its seed, to nurture it till it grows into a tree, a home for beasts, butterflies, bees, and all who seek love and peace.

[ramanaschild]

When you are thirsty,

I shall be the rain,

with my lips, kiss away your pain.

[ramanaschild]

The journey to presence,

begins in the land

of silence.

[ramanaschild]

At our heart's door, Truth waits,

for us to return one day,

to her embrace.

[ramanaschild]

At our heart's door, Truth waits,

for us to return one day,

to her embrace.

[ramanaschild]

In your presence, at your feet,

hours become days become weeks,

Filled with the silence of your peace,

and a blissful absence of me.

[ramanaschild]

An early morning flight to catch.

[ramanaschild]

Worry is like a rocking chair,

it rocks us back and forth,

but takes us nowhere.

[ramanaschild]

An empty room,

is filled with space,

an empty mind, with grace.

[ramanaschild]

The direct path

takes us as soon as we start,

to the Heart.

[ramanaschild]

Until we turn to the light within,

our ego will be the shadow,

that we follow.

[ramanaschild]

Arunachala, beyond branching thoughts,

its shaking leaves,

your stilness is my relief.

[ramanaschild]

We are not the body,

but that which is aware

of the body it wears.

[ramanaschild]

[ramanaschild]

Not ours the breath, heartbeat,

or thoughts that we think we think,

we’re puppets on a string.
